Song Title: Carousel (acoustic)
Original Artist: Blink 182

This is an old Blink 182 song, probably one of the best songs they’ve
put out. I wanted my punk-hating friends to be exposed to stuff like
this, so I fixed it up for an acoustic guitar, switched a bit of
stuff around and it sounds half decent. If you’re familiar with the
original, this won’t be difficult. The intro’s kind of long, feel
free to cut part of it out.

The timing here is doubled, so you may want to sub in power
chords to make it easier, especially with the Bb.
